About Jigtech

Jigtech is a revolutionary door handle and latch fitting system. The innovative, easy-to-use system reduces installation time by 80% for both contractors and installers, resulting in improved cost savings, efficiencies and earning potential.The system is based around a unique jig that clamps to the door, automatically aligning the drill holes on both the door face and the edge.
